DONALD TRUMP: Why Trump is a chump
Summary: A Washington Post article recently by Chris Cillizza published our reactions to Donald Trump a well know reality TV star announcing his candidacy, by making promises of outlandish nature and rubbing in just how rich he is. Trumps presidential candidacy is a terrible thing for politics, but there is a reason why it is so dangerous. Trump cannot and will not be ignored. He may not be liked by all but he is known and he will not be overlooked. In this article he is described as a bad car wreck that you cannot look away from. The dangerous part is that we live in a media based world, and Donald Trump's announcement got way more attention than most candidates did. But we are looking at him for the wrong reasons. There are very few people that will actually vote for Trump as our next president, but most of us are just watching to see what he will do next.

This Article captured exactly what I think everyone has been thinking about Donald Trumps Presidential candidacy. Its sad that he gets more media exposure just because of how ridiculous his candidacy is, but that's how the world works. I think everyone knows that Donald Trump is not going to be our next president, yet we continue to watch him because it is entertaining. Trump has not done anything since his announcement to make me believe he could ever be our president. His positions on foreign policy, his obvious racism and his ridiculous speech at the presidential debate are all things that reassure me that he will never be elected as president. It is true that some people do support him and for reasons I am unaware of, but I am personally not worried about their influence. As long as Donald Trump keeps campaigning, I have not one doubt in my mind that he will not be the next president of the United States.
So many of the things this man says are completely incoherent, racist, and wrong, he should definitely not be elected president
ReplyDeleteHe is absolutely ridiculous. So far he has been racist, sexist, completely ignorant, and the list goes on. If you haven't already seen it, the 18 real things he has said about women article is very interesting, stupid, and actually quite hilarious.http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/18-real-things-donald-trump-has-said-about-women_55d356a8e4
ReplyDeleteIt really irritates me that a man with such a lack of morals and respect for anyone but himself and his fellow racists and sexists. I agree that his campaign for presidency is alone a slap in the face of the united states politics. - Sophie Kurzius
ReplyDeleteI honestly don't see how this man could possibly have supporters, but somehow he does despite what a ridiculous man he is. He doesn't have manners and treats everyone like they are beneath him. If he is elected, I swear I am moving to Canada.
ReplyDeleteWhen I first heard he was running for president I thought it was pretty funny, but as Election Day gets closer and closer, the actually possibility of Trump being the leader of our country is terrifying. Some people are just so blinded by a popular name that they don't focus on the invalid, offensive things actually coming out of his mouth.

ReplyDeleteI get the white racist, old man support for trump but it shocked me that he had women supporters. I mean honestly, after he basically stated that he does not (and America does not) have time to respect women, how is he still around? How are mother's still giving him babies to hold for photos? What if he drops the baby cause it's a girl and he doesn't have time to hold her properly,
